By focusing on mathematical verification, this method aims to solve the trust deficit in mission-critical AI systems, moving beyond probabilistic RAG solutions.

    thanks.. I would phrase the pitch differently though. Verum is a systems language, not a method for AI systems. The thing that is actually load-bearing is that verification is a knob (@verify has seven levels, same source promotes from runtime checks to certified proofs without a rewrite), memory safety has three cost-tiers you pick per function, and runtime dependency injection and compile-time metaprogramming share one primitive. RAG is a retrieval technique for LLM prompts and is unrelated. The nearest prior art for the verification gradient is SPARK, not anything AI-adjacent..
